When a newly-married couple went on their honeymoon in Italy this month, they asked some friends to feed their cats while they were away. And those friends decided the couple's three-bedroom home needed a little redecorating: with 14,000 Post-it notes.

It took four friends eight hours to cover the home in Post-its, and it took another two and a half hours for British newlyweds Jamie and Emily Pharro to remove all of them.

"To be honest we quite expected to come home to something -- our friends have a bit of a track record for this kind of thing," Emily tells the Mirror, noting that another couple came home to their house filled with 3,000 balloons after they got married. She adds, "But there was no damage here -- it was just a bit of harmless fun, but I don't think any of our other friends will want to get married now."
